It is difficult to believe that anyone could view Pablo Picasso’s great painting Guernica and not be moved. It is not just that the painting is great art. Perhaps more important still, it is a clear declaration to all who see it of the consequences of failing to oppose evil….Western democracies faced political and military issues in their choice of responses to the Spanish Civil War of the 1930s which were quite similar to those which the Obama Administration has faced over intervention in the Syrian civil war…If today’s announcement (of massive U.S. aid to Syrian rebels) is any indication, Obama has correctly seen and responded to his Guernica.

It occurs to me that steroid musculature is like fake breasts that look like basketballs glued to a woman’s chest. I mean, if it’s obviously a chemical or surgical trick, what does that say about people who fall for it?
